Foreword
This document (EN 15316-2.1:2006) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 228 Heating systems in buildings, the secretariat of which is held by DS. This document is part of a series of standards developed for implementation of the European Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) The subjects covered by CEN/TC 228 are the following: design of heating systems (water based, electrical etc.); installation of heating systems; commissioning of heating systems; instructions for operation, maintenance and use of heating systems; methods for calculation of the design heat loss and heat loads; methods for calculation of the energy performance of heating systems. methods for design and dimensioning embedded, radiant surface heating and cooling systems

Heating systems also include the effect of attached systems such as hot water production systems. All these standards are systems standards, i.e. they are based on requirements addressed to the system as a whole and not dealing with requirements to the products within the system. Where possible, reference is made to other European or International Standards, a.o. product standards. However, use of products complying with relevant product standards is no guarantee of compliance with the system requirements. The requirements are mainly expressed as functional requirements, i.e. requirements dealing with the function of the system and not specifying shape, material, dimensions or the like. The guidelines describe ways to meet the requirements, but other ways to fulfil the functional requirements might be used if fulfilment can be proved. Heating systems differ among the member countries due to climate, traditions and national regulations. In some cases requirements are given as classes so national or individual needs may be accommodated. In cases where the standards contradict with national regulations, the latter should be followed.

prEN 15316-2-1:2006 (E)

Introduction
This standard constitutes the specific part related to space heating emission, of a set of standards determining methods for calculation of energy losses/requirements of space heating systems and domestic hot water systems in buildings. This standard specifies the structure for calculation of the additional heat losses and energy requirements of a heat emission system for meeting the building net energy demand. The calculation method is used for the following applications: calculation of the additional energy losses in the heat emission system; optimisation of the energy performance of a planned heat emission system, by applying the method to several possible options; assessing the effect of possible energy conservation measures on an existing heat emission system, by calculation of the energy requirements with and without the energy conservation measure implemented. The user shall refer to other European Standards or to national documents for input data and detailed calculation procedures not provided by this standard.

Scope

The scope of this specific part is to standardise the required inputs, the outputs and the links (structure) of the calculation method in order to achieve a common European calculation method. The energy performance may be assessed either by values of the heat emission system efficiency or by values of the increased space temperatures due to heat emission system inefficiencies. The method is based on an analysis of the following characteristics of a space heating emission system including control: non-uniform space temperature distribution; emitters embedded in the building structure; control accuracy of the indoor temperature. The energy required by the emission system is calculated separately for thermal energy and electrical energy in order to determine the final energy, and subsequently the corresponding primary energy is calculated. The calculation factors for conversion of energy requirements to primary energy shall be decided on a national level.

prEN 15316-2-1:2006 (E)

Principle of the method

5.1 Primary energy calculation


Heat losses for heat emission and control of the indoor temperature in a building depends on: the building energy need for space heating (building thermal properties and the indoor and outdoor climate); non-uniform internal temperature distribution in each thermal zone (stratification, emitters along outside wall/window, differences between air temperature and mean radiant temperature); emitters embedded in the building structure towards the outside or unheated spaces; control of the operative temperature (local, central, set-back , thermal mass, etc); auxiliary consumption; The calculation of emission losses shall take into account: energy interaction between type of emitters (radiator, convector, floor/wall/ceiling heating systems) and space ; type of room/zone thermal control strategy and equipment (thermostatic valve, P, PI, PID control, etc) and their capability to reduce the temperature variations and drift; position and characteristics of emitters. Based on these data, the following output parameters for the heat emission sub-system, including control, shall be calculated: total emission system heat losses; auxiliary energy consumption; recoverable heat losses. The calculation may be based on tabulated values or more detailed calculation methods. In section 7 two concepts are given with recommended default values in Annex A and B. The net energy demand for space heating, without taking into account the system losses, shall be calculated under standardised conditions according to EN ISO 13790 or similar national method. The system losses are calculated separately for thermal energy and electrical energy, in order to determine the final energy, and subsequently the corresponding primary energy is calculated (EN15316-1).

5.2 Thermal energy required for heat emission


The thermal energy required for heat emission, Qin,em, is given by:

Qin ,em = Qout ,em k Wem + Ql ,em


where:

[J]

(2)

10

prEN 15316-2-1:2006 (E)

Qout ,em

thermal output of the heat emission system in Joule (J). This is equal to the net heating energy of the building, Qh , (EN ISO 13790);

k Ql,em

part of recoverable auxiliary energy (-); heat losses in Joule (J).

5.3 Auxiliary energy Wem


Auxiliary energy, normally in the form of electrical energy, is used for fans which facilitate the heat emission (fan coil), valves and control. Part of the auxiliary energy may be recovered as heat Qw,em : Qw,em = k Wem [J] (3)

5.4 Recoverable heat losses Qrh,em and un-recoverable heat losses Qnr,em
Not all of the calculated heat losses, Ql,em, are necessarily lost. Some of the heat losses are recoverable. However, only part of the recoverable heat losses is actually recovered. This depends on the utilisation factor (gain/loss ratio), because if the gains of a heated space are very high in comparison with the losses of the space, only few gains can be recovered (see EN ISO 13790). For the heat emission system, only part of the auxiliary energy may be recovered as heat. Only heat losses to an unheated space or to the outside (embedded, back of radiator) are regarded as losses.

5.5 Heat demand for space heating, building heat requirement Qh


The heat requirement for the building or a part of the building, Qh, shall be calculated according to EN ISO 13790 or similar national method as: Qh = Ql - u Qgs where: Ql Qgs u heat losses in Joule (J); heat gains in Joule (J); utilisation factor (-). [J] (4)

This calculation takes into account the heat losses of the building envelope and the recovered part of the total heat gains (metabolic gains from occupants, power consumption of lighting devices, household appliances and solar gains). However, it does not take into account the space heating and domestic hot water system losses due to non-uniform temperature distribution, control inefficiencies, recoverable losses and auxiliary energy. Depending on the input data chosen for the set-point temperature, EN ISO 13790 gives a method to calculate directly the sum of the heat demand and the heat losses of the heat emission system, without differentiating one from the other. The way to determine the internal temperature for taking into account part of the emission heat loss is defined in the present standard. The effects of intermittent space heating with an ideal programming device can be calculated according to EN ISO 13790 and are taken into account in determination of the heat demand, Qh. The effects of a non-ideal programming device (late or early heating up) are taken into account in the present standard as heat emission system heat loss. The effect of a non-ideal space temperature control is taken into account in the present standard.

11

prEN 15316-2-1:2006 (E)

5.6 Heat losses Ql,em


The heat losses of heat emission are calculated as: Q l,em = Q em,str + Q em,emb + Q em,c where: Q em,str Q em,emb Q em,c heat loss due to non-uniform temperature distribution in Joule (J); heat loss due to emitter position (e.g. embedded) in Joule (J); heat loss due to control of indoor temperature in Joule (J). [J] (5)

Methods for calculation of these heat losses are given in 6.

5.7 Calculation periods


The objective of the calculation is to determine the annual energy demand of the space heating emission system. This may be done in one of the following two different ways: by using annual data for the system operation period and perform the calculations using annual average values; by dividing the year into a number of calculation periods (e.g. year, month, week, day, hour, boosted subperiod) and perform the calculations for each period using period-dependent values and adding up the results for all the periods over the year.

5.8 Spatial division of the space heating system


A heating system may, as required, be split up in zones with different heat emission systems, and the heat loss calculations can be applied individually for each zone. The considerations given in EN 15316, part 1 regarding splitting up or branching of the heating system shall be followed. If the principle of adding up the heat losses is respected, it is always possible to combine zones with different heat emission systems.

Energy calculations for a heat emission system

This section give in details methods for calculation of losses in the heat emission systems. The concept is exemplified in two approaches in section 7 with default values in annexes: Method using efficiencies section 7.1, Annex A Method using equivalent internal temperature increase section 7.2, Annex B The two recommended methods may not give exactly the same results; but the same relative trent. The two methods shall not be mixed.

6.1 Non-uniform temperature distribution


6.1.1 General approach for calculation of energy losses due to a non-uniform temperature distribution The energy loss can be caused by (see Figure 2): a temperature stratification, resulting in an increased internal temperature under the ceiling and upper parts of the room;

12

prEN 15316-2-1:2006 (E)

an increased internal temperature and heat transfer coefficient near windows; convection and radiation from the heating system through other outside surfaces.

Figure 2: Effects due to non-uniform temperature distribution and position of heat emitter The heat loss due to a non-uniform temperature distribution is calculated using the general equation for transmission heat loss, taking into account the increased internal temperature, i,inc, and the increased heat transfer coefficient, which is included in the U-value, Uinc, of the surface area exposed: Qem,emb = A Uinc (i,inc - e) t where: A Uinc area of the ceiling, outside wall behind heat emitter or window in square metres (m); calculated from the insulation of the surface and the surface coefficient in Watts per square metres per Kelvin (W/mK). This is influenced by the convective air flow from the heat emitter, reflective material behind the heat emitter, etc. locally increased internal temperature in degrees Celsius (C) which is a function of the heating system and the surface temperature or the supply air temperature of the heating system; external temperature in degrees Celsius (C) [J] (7)

i,inc e

prEN 15316-2-1:2006 (E)

time in hours (h).

Calculation of the net energy use according to EN 13790 is based on the assumption that air temperature and mean radiant temperature are equal and uniformly distributed. For systems with a significant part of radiant heating and spaces with large cold surfaces, the mean radiant temperature may differ significantly from the air temperature. This will for convective systems result in an increased ventilation heat loss and for radiant heating systems result in a decreased ventilation heat loss. The calculations are in this standard simplified by using tabled efficiencies (6.1.2 or equivalent increase in space temperature 6.1.3) 6.1.2 Use of tabled efficiency values for a non-uniform temperature distribution

If the efficiency,L ,of the internal temperature distribution of the heat emission system is given, the additional heat loss Qem,str, can be calculated as:

Qem, str =

1 L

Qh

[J]

(8)

Annex A provide examples of efficiency values for heat emission systems.

6.1.3 Use of tabled values for the equivalent increase in internal temperature due to a non-uniform temperature distribution. The heat loss due to a non-uniform temperature distribution may be calculated according to EN ISO 13790 using an equivalent increased internal temperature. The equivalent increase in internal temperature may be used to calculate the corresponding increase in heat loss in two different ways: by multiplying the calculated building heat demand, Qh, with a factor based on the ratio between the equivalent increase in internal temperature, i, and the average temperature difference for the heating season between the indoor and outdoor temperature for the space: Qem,str = Qh ( 1 + i / (i - e,avg) ) [J] (9)

by recalculation of the building heat energy requirements, according to EN ISO 13790 or similar national method, using the equivalent increased internal temperature.

The second method gives more accurate results. Annex B provides examples of values for the equivalent increase in internal temperature, i, for different types of heat emitters.

6.2 Heat loss of embedded surface heating devices due to additional transmission to the outside
This applies to floor heating, ceiling heating and wall heating systems and similar. This is only considered as a loss when one side of the building part containing the embedded heating device is facing the outside, the ground, an unheated space or a space belonging to another building unit. If embedded heat emitters with different characteristics (e.g. insulation) are used in the heating installation, it is necessary to take this into account by separate calculations.

14

prEN 15316-2-1:2006 (E)

Note : If the increased temperature in the building element has been taken into account in the calculations according to EN ISO 13790, this shall not be done again. For a slab on ground, it is for large buildings important to use the equivalent

U e value according to EN ISO13370 or EN 12831.

The heat loss due to additional transmission to the outside is calculated as follows (see Figure 2): Necessary room heat emission: Q i = A U i ( m - i) t Heat loss to the other side: Qex,a = A Uex (m - ex) t Combining these equations gives: Qex,a = [(Uex/Ui) Qi + A Uex (i - ex)] t where: A Uex Ui surface area with embedded heating device in square metres (m); heat transfer coefficient between the level of the heating medium and the outside, ground, neighbouring unit, or unheated space in Watts per square metres per degrees Celsius (W/mC); heat transfer coefficient between the level of the medium and the heated space in Watts per square metres per degrees Celsius (W/mC); average temperature at the level of the heating medium in degrees Celsius (C); external temperature, ground temperature, temperature in neighbouring unit or temperature in unheated space in degrees Celsius (C); internal temperature in degrees Celsius (C); time in hours(h). [J] (12) [J] (11) [J] (10)

m ex i
t

Heat transfer to the ground can be calculated according to ISO EN 13370. Another way to express the heat losses of an embedded heat emitter is to present the losses as a percentage of the heat demand (heat requirement) of the space. The heat losses are calculated as follows:

Qem ,emb = Qh
where:

Aemb x l emb Azone 100

[J]

(13)

Aemb surface area heated by the embedded emitter in square metres (m2); Aemb surface area of the zone in square metres (m2); xl percentage of heat losses (between 0 and 100):

(14)

where: Ri U b thermal resistance of the building envelope component between the level of the heating medium and the heated space in square metres by Kelvin per Watts (m2K/W); heat transfer coefficient of the building envelope component in Watts per square metres per degrees Celsius (W/mC); temperature correction factor taking into account the temperature reduction, e.g. unheated space, unless it is already taken into account in the value of U.

Building envelope component in contact with ground: If the building envelope component is in contact with the ground, the percentage of heat losses is calculated by:

x l = 100

Ri AG Ri LG

[%]

(15)

where: LG is the steady state part of the heat loss coefficient according to EN ISO 13370; AG is the surface of the building envelope component in contact with the ground in square metres (m2).

6.3 Control of the indoor temperature


6.3.1 General Approach

This method covers only control of the heat emission system and does not take into account the influences, which the control (central or local) may have on efficiency of the heat generation system and on heat losses from the heat distribution system. A non-ideal control may cause temperature variations and drifts around the prefixed set point temperature, due to the physical characteristics of the control system, sensor locations and characteristics of the heating system itself. This may result in increased or decreased heat losses through the building envelope compared to heat losses calculated with the assumption of constant internal temperature. The ability to utilise internal gains (from people, equipment, solar radiation) depends on the type of heat emission system and control method (figure 3) The heat loss due to control of the heat emission system may be calculated in different ways. The method to apply depends on the type of data available for the performance of the control system, i.e. either control efficiency, c (see 6.3.2), or equivalent increase in internal temperature, i (see 6.3.3). 6.3.2 Method using control efficiency.

If efficiency of the control is given, the heat loss due to control of the heat emission system, Qc,em, can be calculated as:

16

prEN 15316-2-1:2006 (E)

Qc , em =

17

prEN 15316-2-1:2006 (E)

6.3.3

Method using equivalent increase in internal temperature

The influence of the control is given by an equivalent increase in internal temperature. The heat loss due to control of the heat emission system may be calculated in two different ways: by multiplying the calculated building heat demand, Qh, with a factor based on the ratio between the equivalent increase in internal temperature, i, and the average temperature difference for the heating season between the indoor and outdoor temperature for the space: Qc,em, = Qh ( 1 + i / (i - e,avg) ) [J] (17)

by recalculation of the building heat energy requirements, according to EN ISO 13790, using the equivalent increased internal temperature. The second method gives more accurate results. Annex B provides examples of values for the equivalent increase in internal temperature, i, for different types of heat emitters and controls.

6.4 Auxiliary energy, We


For each electrical device of the heat emission system, the following data has to be determined: electrical power; duration of operation; part of the electrical energy converted to heat and emitted into the heated space. The electrical energy of fans used in local emitters is calculated by:

Qlocfan = Placfan .Fclf


where : Plocfan : power of the fan (W) Fclf : correction factor depending on the control of the local fan associated wit the emitter. This factor has to be fixed in a national Annex. If such date are not available, defaults values indicated in Annex B should be used

The recoverable energy from the local fan is calculated by

Qlocfan, rec = Qlocfan Tauxrec


Tauxrec can be taken equal to 1.

Recommended calculation methods.

One of the two methods outlined in this section are recommended. The two methods do not give exactly the same results but the same trend. The two methods shall not be mixed.

18

prEN 15316-2-1:2006 (E)

Other national methods used should fit into the general framework of three kind of additional losses. The present standard will present two overall methods to calculate the additional heat losses and energy efficiency for heating emission systems. Section 7.1 and Annex A presents a method based on tabelized values for efficiencies described above. Section 7.2 and Annex B presents a method based on an equivalent increase in space temperature as described above.

7.1 Method using efficiencies


The evaluation of Ql,em takes place monthly or other time period in accordance with equation (18).

f f f Ql,em = Radiant int hydr 1Qh l,em


where Ql,em Qh fhydr fint fRadiant is the additional loss of the heat emission (time period), in kWh; is the net heating energy (time period) (EN ISO 13790), in kWh; is the factor for the hydraulic equilibrium.

(18)

is the factor for intermittent operation (as intermittent operation is to be understood the timedependent option for temperature reduction for each individual room space); is the factor for the radiation effect (only relevant for radiant heating systems); is the total efficiency level for the heat emission in the room space.

l,em

fint and fRadiant are to be set to 1, insofar as they are not described in more detail in the following sections. The total efficiency level l,em is fundamentally evaluated as

h,ce =
where

1 (4 ( L + C + B ))

(19)

L C B

is the part efficiency level for a vertical air temperature profile; is the part efficiency level for room temperature control regulation; is the part efficiency level for specific losses of the external components (embedded systems).

In individual application cases this breakdown is not required. The annual expenditure for the heat emission in the room space is calculated as

Ql,em,a = Ql,em
where Ql,em,a Ql,em is the annual loss of the heat emission, in kWh; is the loss of the heat emission (in the time period) in accordance with equation (18), in kWh.

(20)

prEN 15316-2-1:2006 (E)

7.2 Method using equivalent increase in internal temperature


The internal temperature is increased by: The spatial variation due to the stratification, depending on the emitter; The temporal variation depending on he capacity of the control device to assure an homogeneous and constant temperature. The equivalent increase in internal temperature, I,e, taking into account the emitter, is calculated by:

i , e = ii + l + c

(C)

(21)

where: ii initial internal temperature (C);

l spatial variation of temperature; c control accuracy.

The influence of an equivalent increase in internal temperature. of the heat emission system may be calculated in two different ways: by multiplying the calculated building heat demand, Qh, with a factor based on the ratio between the equivalent increase in internal temperature, I,e, and the average temperature difference for the heating season between the indoor and outdoor temperature for the space: Qc,em, = Qh ( 1 + i,e / (i - e,avg) ) [J] (22)

by recalculation of the building heat energy requirements, according to EN ISO 13790, using the equivalent increased internal temperature. as the set point temperature of the conditioned zone. This second approach leads to a better accuracy. The second method gives more accurate results.

Annex B (Informative) Equivalent increase in internal temperature adapted from the French regulation RT2005

B.1 General
The internal temperature is increased by: The spatial variation due to the stratification, depending on the emitter; The temporal variation depending on he capacity of the control device to assure an homogeneous and constant temperature. The equivalent increase in internal temperature, I,e, taking into account the emitter, is calculated by:

i , e = ii + l + c

(C)

(21)

where:

ii

initial internal temperature (C);

l spatial variation of temperature; c control accuracy.

The increased internal temperature is used in the calculation instead of the initial internal temperature. Remarks: The spatial variations of temperatures may depend on the thermal load. Tables B1 and B2 provide values for minimal and nominal thermal load.

B.2 Zones
When the considerations according to 4.8 imply splitting of the heating system into zones, i.e. groups of space, calculation of the internal temperature is done for each zone. The internal temperature of a zone is obtained by considering the internal temperature of the associated spaces. The coefficient of weighting are determined from the surface of each space.
